Just was wondering any best practices to remove some light wear on the case of my Aviator. Second day of owning it, lol I seem to have gotten some very light scratches on the side when I was comparing it to my Fenix 6. The metal button from the other watch rubbed the Marq at one point. Its barely noticeable, but I know as time goes on more and more will happen.. so wanted to see if there is a simple way to polish that by hand?
I assume you mean on an area that is a brushed finish?
If so, I know people speak highly of the results they get using a Eurotool Fibreglass Scratch Pen:
Well, I have to say, I am very impressed! I spent about five minutes working on the scratch with the pen, going back and forth in a light motion, from the top of the case to the bottom.
At first I thought…
PS - for clarity, the Eurotool was out of stock, so I ordered a similar pen, that was in stock for next day delivery and was also one third of the price (£7.00)

At first I thought it wasn’t improving the condition of the case or removing the scratch but gradually it was obvious that the scratch was being removed. I could have done more and gotten it absolutely perfect but I was worried about scratching too near the black line that divides the bezel from the main case. I will probably go back and go over the entire case, now that I know it works, and spend more time on it.
Here are a couple of photos - it is hard to capture the case with an iPhone but it should give you an idea!

The photos don't do the repair justice - in person you can now hardly see the scratch - I am genuinely surprised at how well it work. This may sound line an infomercial but I promise I am not on commission! 
Yes, the photos make my Captain look like an old dog, which it is not; hence why the deep scratch (you could catch your nail on the edge) was so frustrating. I caught it on the sharp edge of a glass table, in a downward motion - so when I did it, I knew it was going to be a bad mark. I collect mechanical watches, so tend to take care of them and have gotten pretty good at not smacking them into objects 
and my Fenix 6 is saved for the rough stuff.
As for the ceramic bezel, it is perfect - not a mark on it - but having had other premium (non smart) watches, that doesn't surprise me. You have to be really unlucky to damage a ceramic bezel and it is more about what you hit it with and the angle than the material itself being fragile.
